*Numbers You Should Disregard - kckolbe - 08-18-2018 I came up with an idea. I already kind of regret it. Every season, I calculated the average TANY/A for qualifying QBs around the league, then compared each QB to that average. I then totaled up this differences to create a new league career stat. For reference, here was the average TANY/A for each season, which you might find surprising. S1: 3.87 S2: 4.13 S3: 4.55 S4: 4.94 S5: 6.07 S6: 5.7 S7: 5.26 S8: 5.83 S9: 5.23 A lot plays into this. The one I was most excited to see was S7, since that was when CBs learned how to play. Sometimes, though, it isn't a rule change. After S8, Tyler Oles and King Bronko retired, which tanked the league average in S9. Without further ado, here are the rankings. Mike Boss 11.11423919 Avon Blocksdale 8.140931247 King Bronko 3.903435 Mat Akselsen 3.853793586 Chris Orosz 2.273258654 Tyler Oles 1.6908 Ethan Hunt 0.8616 Jameis Christ 0.739 Scrub Kyubee 0.403904185 Vincent Draxel 0.282357846 Borkus Maximus 0.102635307 Wallace Stone -1.3312 Clifford Rove -1.852753566 Kevin Fitzpatrick -1.921058454 Josh Bercovici -3.38636 Ryan Applehort -4.42853394 Logan Noble -5.327588835 Brad Pennington -5.558153617 Nicolas Pierno -13.081 I could not believe the drop off. I kind of expected a gap between Mike Boss and the #2 (which I expected to be Bronko), but instead it was Blocksdale, and after that a huge fall off until Bronko, with Akselsen having a decent chance to pass him this year despite playing much longer into regression. Likewise, Chris Orosz, who was a stud at QB for the league's early seasons, fell off hard. Tyler Oles put up a solid +1.6908 despite only playing three seasons. Ethan Hunt, who I was a big fan of, at least got to go out ahead and finish in the top half. Borkus Maximus III has a lot to look forward to, as he is likely to move up 4 spots after S10, setting him up to possibly be the last good QB by this metric. As you can see from where Fitzpatrick, Applehort, and Pennington are, young QBs struggle for quite a while now, and probably the biggest downside of this metric is how amazingly friendly it is to QBs who spend their first season in the DSFL. Expect Showbiz to being his career in the top 10 due to not having to overcome rookie struggles and playing in a great offense. Also, since you know I love tracking the worst of the worst, here are the 5 worst QB seasons by +/-. S9: Logan Noble: -3.26 S3: Nicolas Pierno: -3.60 S8: Brad Pennington: -3.74 S5: Nicolas Pierno: -3.76 S7: Ryan Applehort: -3.77 Gotta hand it to Pierno for only showing up twice. *Numbers You Should Disregard - iamslm22 - 08-18-2018 Avon baby *Numbers You Should Disregard - bovovovo - 08-18-2018 Dang this is awesome Rip pierno
